Martin

The problem, as I see it, is that MINIX is currently (more) targeted at
text-mode console interface, and rather poorly suited to run a
workstation with a graphical user interface (for which I would rather
recommend Linux, MacOS, NetBSD, or Windows, alpha-sorted.) Where did you
get the idea that MINIX could be the best platform for your aims?

I'm sorry

I use Linux but I wanted to try MINIX. I didn't know about that MINIX is currently CUI. Thanks for information.
